The Princess of the Knight

*ADELIA**I walked into the throne room and saw my parents with a some visitors. They looked like royalty from another kingdom. My Father was laughing loudly with the other King. I bowed my head to greet all of them.''Ah... My beautiful princess. Take a seat''. He gestured to one of the seats away from the throne, by his side.''Meet my friend, King Arnold. He's my childhood friend. You should know him.... I talk about him all the time!''. I didn't say anything, or make any expressions. I just waited for my father to make his point, so I can leave. I had other important things to attend to. ''Anyways, we've found a way to make our friendship even better. I've decided you'll get married to his son, Prince Arthur. I want to believe you've met him''. He said, as he gestured his hand toward the door. Just then a young stout man walked in. His blonde hair and blue eyes drifted to me as he proudly trotted towards me. He stopped just in front of me and stretched out his hand. I placed m

*ADRIAN**I followed the princess back into her room. It was already nightfall. So I left her to wash up. I stayed outside the room and stood guard. I suddenly felt a presence around me. I looked behind me and saw the General. As soon as our eyes locked, he went back into the shadows.That was a signal for me to follow him. I went with him into the corner. "Any news?" He asked."She barely does anything. Just walks around, cries and goes to the garden." I explained.The general stayed quiet for a few seconds, then said"She's too quick witted, not to be up to something. You just haven't noticed it. Be alert. I know her. She may be picking up a spoon, and that may be a signal to someone." I just nodded my head. He walked away and i went back to my post only to see the princess out of her room and peeking through the door."Where did you go?" She asked."To the bathroom, My Princess." I answered"Mmmmmm. Of course" She replied. I furrowed my brows in confusion. She walked inside and

Adrian By the time she was done talking, her face was extremely red and there were tears streaming uncomfortably down her face. There was nothing I could say. Not that I didn't want to say anything or comfort her, but I didn't know what was appropriate and if she'd appreciate my gesture at that moment. Now at least, I understand why she always kept to herself and why she felt like she couldn't stand up to her parents concerning their decision to marry her off. She rested her head in her hands and j brought out my naoking and handed it to her. Without looking up, she collected it from me and wiped her face. “Thank you." She gave me a quick glance before putting her head back down. We stayed in silence like that, with me standing and staring at her while she sat on the bed and the only sound that was being heard was her sniffing. “Go ahead, say it. I'm stupid and irresponsible and I deserve to die. It won't be the first time someone said it. After all, it's not like it's a l

AdeliaI was angry, hurt, sleepy, tired and now, I was sick. Nauseous actually, because I had no idea why my father would be asking for me. As if that was not enough, my mother was right beside him and she was giving the deadliest stare that she had ever given. “Good morning Father. Good morning Mother. " “Adelia my Princess, how are you? I hope you had a wonderful night." My father asked.I simply replied with a smile and a nod because I didn't want to say much. I don't know if he caught on to it but he just moved on from it. My mother simply ignored my existence and focused on her nails. . “Well, due to the impromptu arrangement of your marriage and the fact that you didn't get a chance to know your soon to be husband prior to last week, we've decided that you are going to over to Glacia to spend some time with him. Get to know him, he's a fine young man." I froze. My heart beat loudly in my ears and I wanted to scream at my father. “I haven't even agreed to marry him and now
